Hair loss

I was doing really good with my protein until last week when I started having problems with a perirectal abscess that went rogue. I have been in and out of the hospital and have had some other issues so I'm not getting all the protein absorbtion so my hair is starting to fall out. Does anyone have any vitamins or other things I can do?

Taking biotin now from doctor's office as my hair was getting thinner. 5 1/2 months out.

I doubt that the hair loss is from a decrease last week, it takes a little longer then that to start usually, but a lot of people including myself have hair loss post surgery from all the decreases in vitamins and nutrients, I have taken biotin every day all along so the hair loss is minimal but still have some, from what I have read it tends to be temporary and comes back later, hopefully. Good Luck.

I had heard about the hair loss so a few days post op I started using "ovation hair therapy (keeping my fingers crossed it works) so far I still have the same amount of hair loss I had pre op so

Hopefully this product does work. I already have thin hair to begin so I'm trying to prevent more hair loss

Hairloss is from drastic metabolic changes...it only lasts a couple of months and biotin doesn't stop hair loss it just helps with the returning hair.
